THE NATION

Kristianstads Nation got its name from the city Kristianstad in Scania. Historically students at Lund University used to join the nation representing their home city, but now we welcome students from all over Sweden and all over the world. Despite this, we kept the best of being a

OUR HISTORY

Kristianstads Nation was created in 1890, when the growing Scanian Nation (Skånska nationen) had to split up in to 5 smaller nations. Nowadays, it doesn’t matter where you come from when you choose which Nation to join- whoever joins Kristianstads Nation belongs to the same family!

​

For several decades, our community has shared experiences, created memories and welcomed new members who have kept writing the story of the Nation. Do you need some help understanding the gobbledygook of older members? No worries, here is a little list to help you navigating our Nation’s references!

SNAPPHANEGÅRDEN

Vårt eminenta nationshus, Snapphanegården byggdes 1957, med samma prickiga balkonger vi har än idag. Visste du att vår fasad är K-märkt?

 

Nationshuset fungerar inte bara som verksamhet för nationen, utan står även till förfogande för 50 bostäder. Vara 45 är korridorsrum och resterande 5 lägenheter. Huset har varit med om en del genom åren, det är trotsallt ett studentbostadshus. Allt ifrån att gamla boenden kastar mikrovågsugnar från balkongerna till vilda fester. Något som lugnat ner sig avsevärt idag - men oroa er inte, fest finns fortfarande!
